I love this update. From the map changes, controllable boats, new architecture, and of course the sea monsters. This is possibly gonna be the best update yet!!

Very cool, but what can you tell us about *crabs* =P Looking forward to the official release for this!

I love the attention to detail, this game is a gem.

This looks phenomenal. I can’t wait till I can play with the new mechanics. Keep up with the amazing work!!

Very cool this looks awesome. Might need to adjust some voicelines but looking very good!

This game is becoming one of my favs!! specially for the little details, and adding new updates that actually change the gameplay its amazing!! imagine in the future if we can control a falconeer or other troops will be amazing!

This update can't come any sooner! Getting Sid Meiers Pirate vibes 😁😁

It looks very good ! I've fallen in love with the game's ambiance, the Universe is really captivating, the more lore tidbits you can get out into the games the better too <3 Great work !

New Game owner also, will any of these updates be coming to Consoles? Playing on a Xbox X, the game plays smooth. Maybe I am playing the game wrong, but I wish there was a way to get more trading ships. Just so I can expand more easy. But then that might be the way the game was setup to be.

Just buyed the game and it's awesome. It was exactly the game i wanted. islander but bigger and with more management to do. I can"t wait to fight with big ship like this. Also i got the flying scarabs unit and their noise drive me insane i think it would be awesome if we could decrease or shut down their noises without muting all game.

Excellent!

This makes battles look a lot more.... terrifying. Also never noticed the splashing of debris/creatures hitting the water. Also love those hazard stripes, well done!

Oi, Tomas! I love your game, it's refreshingly mellow and is just so unique, I love it. At 4:43, how did you build towers across the deep water like that? I see some stones but I thought you could not build across deep water at all. Request for you to put hot keys in for control groups (specifically because of Naval command making it so you can have your surveyor, a separate flight group and navy) It would be really nice to be able to add key buildings/locations to the control groups as well. Thanks for developing this lovely game. P.S. I LOVED Moonpath to Elswyre.

Il y aura différents navire ?

Je suis fan de ce jeu j'ai hâte de voir comment le navire fonctionnera en jeu et je me demande si il pourra faire la même chose que le dirigeable

I think I have never seen a better preview of a game! Can really see the passion that went into it and I love the idea of it! Gonna give it a try

This is gonna be an amazing update. I’m wondering if their is gonna be more uses for faction leaders. They’re great and I love the design they bring to command towers but I don’t fully understand what they do other than just look cool and be the 1st step to help you find the other gate

Amazing work! Hope there'll be a similiar mechanic for a fleet like the airship with the normal ships in the future :D

I don't know if it's going to be addresed in a future update but pirate raids from Nottylock Basilicus don't move and just sit there

This is brilliant I'm really looking forward to this, Could you maybe implement an system where you can increase the numbers of your military forces by spending splinters? Like for example when you build a Hammerhead Gunship command tower you start off with only three airship, but if you upgrade the tower you increase the number of ships that spawn.

super excited for the new mechanics surrounding naval warfare!!!

Very cool! Looking forward to the naval component. Coincidentally into 18th century naval warfare at the moment The ship designs and water physics in your games are sweet

Very cool, will you consider doing faction/alternate naval command ship models?

I only just picked up the game recently and have been enjoying it. I bought the pack that came with both games. When i first saw the pictures and videos of the game i was immediately hooked when i saw the art style and visual look of the world and the minimalistic building mechanic of the game. I also thought this game would be cool with an Anno 1800 style multiplayer where the players start with their own surveyor and just go out and build, and compete or cooperate if they wish. Is that something thay has been suggested before or something you may have thought about as a future plan?

mod support is an interesting idea btw, ik a lot of people in these communities dont usually think about it though

this game is shaping into one of my favorite RPG outpost managers really quickly, i do have a struggle figuring out combat though, also id love to support this game in more ways if possible

I love how beautiful the game is and has a nice ominous ambiance without grim ugliness that so many other games go for.

Man i love how you keep up this game, did bought and played it yet + it's sooo super cool and thank you for constantly upgrading it!❤ Didn't play much Fight scenarios yet but i hope they get Something like super weapons / special buildings in its unique Fashion 🎉

Hoping that you'll add keybind groups with the addition of naval ships and aerial groups that are separate from the surveyor, IE key press 1, surveyor selected, 2 Aerial group, 3 Naval fleet etc. I respect your minimalist design philosophy around UI, it's really neat. BUT I think there's a reason every RTS ever (even though this isn't an RTS) has keybinds for groups. Or being able to assign your own keybinds would be even better. I just bought the whole game yesterday because of Splattercats video, played for 4 hours and thoroughly enjoyed it. Have you considered a small upgrade tree for the surveyor ships? I felt like the longer I played the squishier it became. Would be neat to be able to customize speed/weapons/point defense a bit. Some cosmetic customization would be neat to: banners on the ship? change more elements to match your faction color? etc.

your games rock...

So looking forward to this update! Love it!

I need to give this a try. I've been doing professional engineering design/CAD work for 7 years now and this looks SUUUUUPER interesting and fun at the same time. I love your controls within the game world concept. Keep up the good work.

I'm impressed by how much of this update starts from "the players are doing this a lot so I'm making it work better". Definitely a good sign when you're experimenting with something this different from most games. I've had my eye on the game for a while as a curiosity, but seeing this makes me even more interested!

Cant wait to try it out! Keep up the wonderful work!

I love the fact that you threw in extra stuff just because cool. Now I'm off to play another cycle of this gem-in-the-making!

Can't wait to dive back into the game with these new updates. Thank you!!

One thing that would be great to add at some point would be massive shallow spanning bridges that connect outposts/settlements to the major cities. In my first City tab (main menu option) I've got several wood and stone refineries on the go that are close to the main city, but I can't connect them properly to my city in a land based way. I appreciate doing it via ports and trade lines etc, but it got to the point in my end game where I had no more naval commanders that could carry either stone or wood. They were purely pirates who carried manpower, or naval battlegroup commanders that wouldn't do the trade routes (IE only protecting them). Also, I know this may take a lot of work on your side, but adding a expanded codex into the game much like the original Mass Effect did, would be very much appreciated. I'm unsure if there was a predecessor to this game, but I know next to nothing about the factions, world, deep gouge that we've messaged each other about in the past, or each factions 'wonder' (I unlocked the turtle but have no idea why its significant!) As ever though it is a sensational game! Please do keep up with the improvements and patches!! =D

Okay this update definitely has me excited on the future of this game. Speaking of bugs, there is a bug on ps4 I noticed, everytime I tried to "Save and Exit" my game crashes and my save gets corrupted, I found a way around it by saving manually then closing the app to dashboard, figured you should know about it. Other than that, love the game so far and it's definitely a blast. Though do you make like multiple settlements of different factions, or do you bundle them together into one settlement?

Really like this game, played the demo and loved it, realy glad now stuff is getting added. Oh by the way, on the PS4 version, there is a bug I encountered where when I try and save and exit the game, the game crashes and it corrupts my save. I have to save before I exit to the ps menu. Might wanna look into fixing that glitch

I have just 100% achievement Bulwark yesterday on ps5, and I am enjoying it so much!!!

Looks awesome!!!

That naval gameplay actually looks really fun! Also loving the new fortress types. Would you consider adding unique fortresses that have a "signature" armament? Like Tesla coils, lasers, etc? Just some wild Red Alert style stuff. Could play into a dark age of technology theme the game has going on. Also, please consider adding a list for the various battlegroups, with units in those groups, their health, experience/level and a few basic commands (rally to surveyor, rally to origin point, etc)

Amazing now it will be more funn!!!

I'm so excited for this update I love this game so much and I know the community isn't the biggest but I'm so happy with the reworked random pois I was so far into a save I had almost every imperium outpost under me but because I didn't get any random refuge's I couldn't align with the imperium more and I couldn't have the city at the shard join me I'm so happy about this update I absolutely love this game and thank you for the amazing work

Great game! Much support keep up the great work!

Call it "World Conquest"

Hey Tomas, good-looking update as always! I was very excited to see you and talk to you today at the BUas Showcase day since I saw you on the guest list :). Unfortunately, I think I missed you. I loved your Unity tech talk on textureless art. It gave me a whole new perspective on what's possible and viable in games.

Looks great man! I have a question I was hoping you could help me with, I’m playing on Xbox and I was wondering if and how you could assign commanders in free build?

Amazing! This update looks better then I'd wished to hope for!

Wooow I really love the idea that you can control the ships near you, I will love to sail around my settlement and see it from the perspective of one of my ships ❤
